There are two types of rental contract. Definite and indefinite. If the contract is for an indefinite term the lease does not have to be renewed. If the contract is for a definite term you should inform the owner 30 days prior to the end of the lease your intentions to extend the term.

Once the check-out has been conducted, the property has been cleaned to a satisfactory standard the deposit will be returned to you, less any deductions like unpaid utilities, rent or damages to the apartment.

The tenant has the liability to pay rent until the end of the contract (usually a minimum term is included). If for any reasons renter needs to move out early the deposit will stay with the owner.
